Hmm.. I'm interested.. But I have to check. If you do come definitely let me know. I'll get some local rotorheads together for dinner or something.

Well, definately we have 3 of us coming. TrackAddict, MoodDude and I will be driving and L8Apex may be our photographer.

I believe TrackAddict said they may be closing the registration today so if you want to register you better go ahead and sign up. I just did it today. Maybe you will have tha black monster ready to go, eh!

Getting psyched! It looks like there is some fairly heavy duty iron in Solo I think that will make for some interesting track sessions and perhaps some good video..

Shoot! I really want to goto this thing.. But Its hard for me to know if I'll be around that weekend.

Regarding places to stay, I live 15 minutes away from the track. You could look around Irondale or Trussville for lodging.
